Eagles Stun Giants on Game’s Final Play
NY Times ^ | 12/19/2010 | John Branch

Posted on 12/19/2010 2:48:00 PM PST by Kid Shelleen

The best quarterback for most of the game was Eli Manning. In the end, it was Michael Vick, and the Philadelphia Eagles who stunned the Giants to take tenuous control of the N.F.C. East with two games remaining.. Vick led a furious rally to erase a 21-point fourth-quarter deficit, pulling the Eagles into a tie with 76 seconds left in the game. Then, with overtime seemingly inevitable, DeSean Jackson returned a punt 65 yards for a touchdown on the last play of the game

Quoting a story form the New York Times about the NFL(which I thought we were boycotting because of Limbaugh) which is cheering a team from Philadelphia.

The defensive coach was ok. Coughlin took the game in the 4th quarter. As for Dodge.....

That was three hours of good beer and food wasted.

It was a great game, but if the Eagles would have lost, Reid would have been roasted for not challenging those two play rulings that in my mind would have been overturned. Maybe it was the fault of the people upstairs, but Reid would have taken the blame.

What a terrific game for my fantasy football team. My team is in the second week of the fantasy football playoffs and is winning this week so far. I finished the season in first place. Today I started Vick (39.68 points), Boss (11.9 points), and DeSean Jackson (9.2 points). Vick
single-handedly will put my team in the championship game next week.

Just when you think you’ve seen it all...another football game produces a thriller.

LOL, I watched about 30 seconds to get the score while in the middle of “You’ve Got Mail” so when my kid came home from my brother’s I could talk to him about it. Beginning of 4th Qtr, the score was 24 to 3-Giants. I thought, oh my goodness, Rush was right. How could he possibly know the Eagles were going to lose. So I went back to watching the movie.

My son came in and started yacking about how great the game was and I said, “What? They WON?” and, of course, I got the whole story.

Good for Philly, and I’m happy for my family. Die hard fans all. Poor Rush./s

Did Vick kill another dog today? :0

meant entirely in fun ... is his penance not miraculous? I say let him have a family dog a long as it is not a breed like pit bull, doberman, etc. See how he does with a chi-hua-hua first.

Coughlin' is probably done as the Giants coach after this season anyway -- and rightly so. This Giants team has a penchant for stupid mistakes and sloppy play that is pretty shocking for a team that is coached by a hard-liner groomed from the Bill Parcells family of coaches.

Don't be surprised to see Bill Cowher coaching this team next year, but only if he can mold it into his kind of team.

I think so. In his PC, the first words out of his mouth were praise for “my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ”. I can’t remember ever hearing him say that before.

Bad losses, no doubt, but cheer up.

Super Bowl wins:

Giants 3
Eagles 0

Hey, I’m a Seattle Seahawks fan, so I got no dog in this.

Just saying....I doubt Giants fans would trade their 3 SB wins vs. a couple of gut-punch losses to the Eagles.

Maybe those stupid EAgles fans will buy Vick a pony,... I mean a puppy.

It would be great if Cower would come to the Cowboys but he’d have to have a very serious come to Jesus talk with Jerry Jones first.
